Adam Adelson and Elliot Skeer have had an incredible few weeks, rapidly ascending the sports car racing ladder with success. Their partnership developed through years in Pirelli GT4 America, leading to their expansion into GT3 in Fanatec GT World Challenge America and IMSA Michelin Pilot Challenge. In 2024, they joined the IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Challenge GTD class with Wright Motorsports, quickly achieving podium finishes at Sebring and WeatherTech Raceway Laguna Seca. Despite a challenging middle of the season, they secured their first victory in GTD at Indianapolis Motor Speedway at the Battle on the Bricks six-hour race. Two weeks later, they won the GT World Challenge America Pro class at the Indy 8 Hour, narrowly missing the overall victory due to a pitstop penalty but claiming the GTWCA Pro class championship. Adelson, Skeer, and their teammate Jan Heylen showcased dedication and hard work, culminating in their remarkable accomplishments at Indy. Their journey from battling changing conditions to securing their first IMSA win and championship at Indianapolis Motor Speedway was a fantastic double triumph for the duo.
